News & Events

Membership Full

May 4th, 2025

Membership in the club continues to be full. Apologies to those waiting to get into the club--we can only manage so many members with two planes. We tried out a third plane a couple years ago, but the finances didn't pan out. So, we remain a two-plane club and keep our membership limited so that everyone has reasonable access to the planes. We take new members first-come first-served from the waiting list. If you're hoping to join, best thing to do is apply to join and we will put you on the waiting list. Alternatively, check out flight schools at[...]

182 Operational

January 17th, 2025

After a long absence, our 182 is back in the air, with a new engine and prop! We're glad to see her flying again. [...]

182 Grounded

August 14th, 2024

Our 182 is grounded for the foreseeable future for unexpected repair work on the prop and engine. Unfortunately, shops are backed up so much that we don't expect the plane to return to service for months. This unfortunately also means the club will not be taking any new members for the foreseeable future so that existing members have reasonable access to our 172. Check back in six months or so if you're interested in joining. [...]

New Members

June 28th, 2024

The club is accepting applications for new members, however, the club is currently at capacity. Over the past three years we have accepted on average 10 new members per year, who replace departing members. But, as always, we never know how the flow will go. If in doubt, put in an application. This will land you on the waiting list. The application fee is refundable if you don't join eventually. [...]

Rate Increase

May 28th, 2024

Due to rising operating costs, the rates for the aircraft are as follows: Cessna 172: $85/hr; Cessna 182RG: $127/hr. Dues remain the same at $175/mo. [...]

Spring Cookout

May 16th, 2024

The club welcomed the approach of summer with a club cookout at the hangars, which included a raffle for a free hour of flight time and other goodies. We expect the club to remain at full membership through the summer. The majority of our members are now licensed pilots, but we continue to offer training to a limited number of students. [...]

Membership Remains Full

March 7th, 2024

As we approach our tenth year, the club remains at full membership, with a slow but steady turnover of a few members per year. Most of the membership are licensed pilots, as opposed to five years ago when about half were students, but we continue to offer instructions to a limited number of students. [...]

Annual Meeting

January 2nd, 2024

This year's Annual Meeting will take place January 18th at Granite Air Center at the Lebanon Airport. We will discuss the last year, our budget going forward and elect new members to the board of directors. All are welcome. [...]

2023 Maintenance

December 21st, 2023

2023 was a major maintenance year for the club, which happens from time to time. The 182 has completely revamped landing gear and the 172 has a new engine. The club tries to keep assessments to a minimum but this year we are having to assess members $400. Crossing fingers that next year we get back to normal. [...]

New Rates

January 16th, 2023

As of January 1st, club rates are as follows: Dues: $175/mo • 172: $83/hr tach • 182: $121/hr tach. These changes replace the pre-buy program. [...]

Annual Meeting

January 11th, 2023

The annual meeting will take place at Granite Air Center at the Lebanon Airport, 6pm, Thursday, January 19th. We will announce a new dues and rate structure, hold elections, and tell flying stories. All welcome. Pizza first then the meeting. [...]

2023 Pre-Buy Announced

December 15th, 2022

The 2023 182 pre-buy is on! The club needs commitment of 300 hours of time to offer a discount of $175/hr for the 182. If you are a 182 pilot you will receive and email with details. [...]
